Win a Back To School Book Bundle from Collins LittleStuff

And so we’re on to day two of our #BackToSchoolBooks fortnight – is it good round here this week or WHAT?And today is SUCH a brilliant prize for all the 5-7yr olds in KS1. We’ve got the still-essential-in-every-home dictionary – and this one’s a perfect illustrated version for 6yr olds which will mean every new reader can grapple with the words and really enjoy learning from it. Plus there’s a Thesaurus aimed at KS1 kids too (now here’s a secret I’ve never told anyone. I was a bright kid, top of my class all the way through primary at anything to do with English, and I sailed through my 11+ and into grammar school probably on the strength of my English too. No extra coaching and tuition in those days! But it wasn’t until I was halfway through my first year in high school that I saw a ‘thesaurus’; I’d never even heard of one, never knew such a thing existed. Oh the joy in my sad, english-mad heart at the idea of a book all about good words!). There’s also a fab book of wordsearches (yes, my little 7yr old heart would have LOVED that too), and on top of all the wordy books there’s a brilliant Primary Atlas too (something I sorely lacked at primary school to be fair. I still have a rather embarrassingly woolly notion of where places are in the world…).
And on top of all that book beautification, joy of all joys, there’s a great big pack of lovely shiny new felt tip pens. Marvellous.
